Adjustment to do
I lost track of my button holes .. bloody hell! My solution - Pick up and knit two rows along the edge and do YO where the button holes are to be .. I know I need 7, so I'll just measure it out evenly. During the next pattern repeat set, I'll be starting decreases .. Gonna be a wee bit nerve-wracking, but i gots this :)

Que Sere Swatch
Much better .. the holes are there .. just hard to see in one pattern repeat .. as usual .. I knit to gauge :D .. now fest swatch for other then I'll definitely make up my mind .. but this one seems to be the definite leader

Que Sera or Yoked Cardi
A few years ago I bought some yarn at knitpicks that is just so soft and a gorgeous shade of green. I've been waiting for just the right pattern for this yarn to speak to me. Course with my luck, two spoke to me LOL. One's a summer sweater and one's for fall. Mind you, it's winter now, but by the time its done, it'll prolly be spring.
I've done a test swatch and have gotten to good by far of doing yarn overs that dont create holes in my work LOL And of course those yarn overs caused me to create more stitches .. ARRRGGGGHHHH At any rate, I'll frog my swatch again and do a proper yarn over tomorrow :)
